Yesterday we relayed the word from Outpost Gallifrey that Jon Pertwee's The Green Death and Peter Davison's The Visitation would be the first two Doctor Who DVD releases of 2005. Unfortunately, the popular fansite was provided with and posted the "order due date" for retailers of "February 1," when the actual street date turns out to be March 1st. They have corrected their info there, plus added cover art as well. However, we've gone straight to the BBC's American DVD distributor, Warner, and gotten some 3-D cover art, plus more details as well. Here's the scoop:
